In this episode: In the Upper Cumberland alone there are more than 70,000 individuals living with special needs. Putnam County Schools averages 1 in 5 students has an IEP. This isn’t a fringe demographic, it’s a defined segment of our community. With all this in mind, why are there not more resources, opportunities and infrastructure created specifically for the over 20% of individuals in this community and state that live with special needs? You’ve worked with families for over 30 years. As the old saying goes, no family is perfect. What’s a universal piece of advice you’ve found to be true for both families supporting a member with special needs and those who are not? How has your life changed for the better since having children with special needs? Find out more about Rising Above Ministries:https://www.risingaboveministries.org/Listen to Rising Above Dad's:https://www.risingaboveministries.org/risingabovedadsBetter Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is a product of Morgan Franklin Media and recorded in Cookeville, TN.This episode of Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is made possible by our partners at Miss Sallie's Market.Find out more about Miss Sallie's Market:https://www.misssallies.com
